The BoatRealm vision

A verified history that travels with the hull

Cars have title histories. Aircraft have logbooks the FAA can read. Boats have a shoebox. The Hull Record gives every boat a permanent, trusted service record that owners control and buyers can believe.

The shift

From paper trail to proof

What changes when service history becomes a shared, verified record.

Where records live
Shoeboxes, inboxes, and the yard’s filing cabinet
One Hull Record tied to the hull identification number
Who can trust them
Nobody can tell what is real
Each record shows how it was verified
What happens at sale
History is lost or handed over as a stack of paper
The Hull Record transfers to the new owner in one tap
What buyers see
“Well maintained” in a listing description
A Hull Score and a dated, documented timeline
What surveyors and insurers get
Phone calls and photocopies
A secure, read-only link the owner controls

Trust you can see

Every record shows how it was verified

Records climb from owner-logged to provider-verified, and the Hull Score reflects it.

Tier 1

Owner logged

Entered by the owner or captain. Useful, and the starting point for every boat.

Tier 2

Receipt matched

AI reads the invoice photo and matches vendor, date, parts, and vessel to the entry.

Tier 3

Provider verified

The yard or technician who did the work confirms it from their BoatRealm provider account.

The lifecycle

One record, from first service to next owner

Step 1 of 5

Owners, captains, and yards add work as it happens. Snap a receipt and AI fills in the details.

Who it serves

Better for everyone in the deal

Owners

Every receipt in one place, service reminders from engine hours, and a stronger price at resale.

Buyers

Compare boats on documented condition, not adjectives. Know what you are buying before the survey.

Brokers

Listings that stand out, fewer deals lost in survey, and faster closings.

Yards & technicians

Sign off work in seconds and get found by owners whose boats you already know.

Surveyors

Start every survey with the complete service history already in hand.

Insurers & lenders

Underwrite with real maintenance data, shared securely by the owner.
